Welcome to the 15th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies (GHGT-15):The GHGT conference series has established itself as the premier international technical conference on carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS). Since GHGT began in 1997, the conferences have charted the significant progress and growth in the science behind CCS. The importance of CCS as a climate mitigation option was highlighted in the IPCC’s Fifth Assessment Report in 2015. In a post-Paris world, CCS will be even more important as a low carbon technology option. CCS has the advantage of being applicable to both the power and industrial sectors. It may also be used to reduce emissions in the heating and transport sectors through the production of hydrogen.

The deployment of CCS technologies has been part of the Abu Dhabi clean energy strategy. The first integrated commercial-scale project in UAE is located in Mussafah, which is capturing carbon dioxide from the flue gas of an Emirates Steel production facility and injecting the CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company’s nearby oil fields. The main objectives of the project are to reduce the carbon footprint of the United Arab Emirates, implement EOR in subsurface oil reservoirs, and free up natural gas that would have been used for oil field pressure maintenance. The Al Reyadah Project includes capture, transport, and injection of up to 800,000 tonnes per year of CO2 and is part of an overall master plan which could also create a CO2 network and hub for managing future CO2 supply and injection requirements in the United Arab Emirates.

Another important project in the region is Uthmaniyah CO2-EOR Demonstration Project. This largescale project, located in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, is capturing and storing approximately 800,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year from a natural gas production and processing facility and includes pipeline transportation of approximately 85 kilometers to the injection site (a small flooded area in the Uthmaniyah Field). The objectives of the project are determination of incremental oil recovery (beyond water flooding), estimation of sequestered CO2, addressing the risks and uncertainties involved (including migration of CO2 within the reservoir), and identifying operational concerns. The project has an elaborate monitoring and surveillance program to provide a clear assessment of CO2 storage underground. As a result, the project has become a ground for testing new monitoring technologies. In addition, KU has recently established the Research & Innovation Center on CO2 & H2 (RICH). The center aims to become a world leading hub in the development of novel materials and technologies for CO2 capture and utilisation as well as H2 production, storage and distribution using modeling and experimental approaches. RICH is the main center of excellence in the UAE to carry out state-of-the-art research and innovation in the context of carbon-neutral energy, deploy clean energy and value-added products, generate intellectual property, pursue knowledge exchange and education, develop Emirati human capacity, and diversify the UAE economy while helping to mitigate climate change.

GHGT-15 will highlight advances in CCS R&D, demonstration and large scale projects globally with more focus on the UAE as well as developments in the Whole of Middle Eastern region. This is the first time that the GHGT conference is being organized in the Middle East and the United Arab Emirates to host it. On behalf of the GHGT-15 Steering Committee, we look forward to welcoming you to Abu Dhabi.
